Residents of a 16-floor apartment building in central Auckland, have been ordered to evacuate.
Auckland Council issued City Gardens Apartments a dangerous building notice, citing fire safety concerns.
City Garden must carry out repairs to meet standards - and if work's still incomplete people will have to move out on Monday.
One resident says the building's always had issues - and during one fire drill the fire escape was even locked.
Auckland Council Building Control General Manager Ian McCormick told Heather du Plessis-Allan it was a significant enough issue to take action.
